    So as some of you may know I've basically been MIA from BZ/BS01 for 2 years. This is due to mostly your typical RL stuff then again you never know, maybe the end of the bionicle line affected me subconsciously or something
     
    Anyway I'm sorta kinda back (new and improved with PMship) as in i'm trying to be around multiple times a week. In the meantime not much special going on going through the typical struggles of an Electrical/Computer Eng undergrad student.
     
    I'm also currently reading The Signal and the Noise: Why Many Predictions Fail-but Some Don't by Nate Silver. I'm only about two thirds of the way though but have thoroughly enjoyed it so far. As the title implies the book talks about predictions/forecasts, the reasons for their success/failure and how to make them more accurate. This is done though many examples ranging from sports to economics to weather to poker. Although the author is a statistician the book is not very math/math-theory heavy (although there is a decent number of stats to back up the claims). I would recommend it to everybody as its a great read.

    End

    By Great Being #1,

    I know it's a couple of days early but I cant get on much theses days as I'm busy. The reason I'm busy is that I have friends from Seatle over here (I live in Toronto). Anyway they leave Wedsday so and have been already fro 10 days. It's been fun. Then Friday I leave for Cuba with my (very hot ) friend and her familly. So you see why it's been hecktic for me and will continue to be. Anyway peace out.

    I'm not very good at this staying active thing am I well I've been on a couple times since my last entry but didnt really have time to post or hang around much. I guess that's what happens when you're studying electrical engineering at a top school, doesnt leave much time for other stuff. Anyway in the meantime I finish the N Silver book and am trying to find time to read The Brain That Changes Itself.
     
    I've also been keeping up with one of my favourite things, sports. The Super Bowl was great though i'm not sure why everybody thinks Beyonce's performance was amazing. Dont get me wrong she was great but i feel like the stage and routine was too cluttered. My Raps swung a big deal and landed Rudy Gay which makes me happy since he's a great basketball players. Oh and hockey's making everybody in Canada super happy. Anywho that's about it, now back to schoolwork.

    Randomosity

    By Great Being #1,

    Well today I'd like to randomly point out that the Mahri and Titans seem to have still not come out in Canada!!!!! Seriously though what's up with that, we're neighbors to the US and we get them like a month later. Fellow countrymen/women let your anger out here. Or it might just be me not seeing them flukily

    Well as you all know what last week was like. BZP was out for 3 or 4 days, we had recieved reports of B-Shelf going to shut down, Maj was acting up and, there was a report of the Wiki going down (actually that was yesterday ). Well it seems that there is hope in the future now. BZP is up and running better than ever, B-Shelf is staying open, the problems on Maj have calmed down but something remains to bee seen; that is the Wiki. The Wiki is curreently having problems with the server comany. They are asking we buy a server for our selves which costs 130$ a month! Now we dont need it but they insist. We have 5 days to do somehing about it. The Mods have started downloading the pages onto their comps and Swert is asking around for ideas.here is a shimmer of hope though as many people have sepped forward saying that they will donate to the Wiki. If you wish vote Here.

    This Week

    By Great Being #1,

    Well as I'm not a Premier Member this will only last short time but it will be fun. I have to say HA to all my friends who are PMs because now I am your equal. No wait I am your superior as I have FT powers (no matter how little they are ). And that's about it.
